Cookies for Santa and Jesus

One of our family traditions is to have a birthdayparty for Jesus on Christmas Eve. It is veryimportant to us to teach our kids why we are reallycelebrating Christmas. It's not just about Santa andgifts. This is the day we celebrate the birth of ourSavior. Trevor and I baked some cookies for Santa andJesus' birthday party. This is most definitely one of myfavorite things at Christmas.

So T and I were decorating our cookies and Ilooked up to see how he was doing and that littleturkey was already chowing down on one. His cookiehad almost an entire tube of icing and about a 1/4of the sprinkles. Look at that mouth!! So cute.

Sneaky little guy! He just cracks me up.

Mommy had to make a cookie for Cruz.I am such an amateur.

Here is a close up of T's pretty cookie.Doesn't it look delicious? He is taking ordersfor next year!!

After we had a talk about Jesus and his birthdaywe sang Happy Birthday to him and blew out thecandles. Notice T's cookie, he couldn't take that cookiesitting in front of his face any longer and during ourshare time about Jesus he took a sample bite. We loveour sugar.

Look at that face. Trynity loves her cookie.

I mean, what can I say? He's so silly!

Cruz just slept and swang during our party.This is my favorite face he makes when hesleeps. His little tongue sticks out just a bit.

We plan on doing the birthday party for Jesus too! I think that is so important and that is the easiest way for little kids to relate the meaning of Christmas with the birth of Jesus. All kids love some cookies! Trev..I'll take two next year!
